IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
i
• Explanation of Graphical Symbols
The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an
equilateral triangle, is intended to alert you to the
presence of uninsulated “dangerous voltage” within
the product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient
magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to
persons.
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle
is intended to alert you to the presence of important

and the like.
8 Accessories – Do not place this product on an unstable cart,
stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The product may fall,
causing serious injury to a child or adult, and serious
damage to the product. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod,
bracket, or table recommended by the manufacturer, or sold
with the product. Any mounting of the product should
follow the manufacturer’s instructions, and should use a
mounting accessory recommended by the manufacturer.
9 A product and cart combination should be moved with care.
Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may
cause the product and cart combination to
overturn.
10 Ventilation – Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided
for ventilation and to ensure reliable operation of the
product and to protect it from overheating, and these
openings must not be blocked or covered. The openings
should never be blocked by placing the product on a bed,
sofa, rug, or other similar surface. This product should not
be placed in a built-in installation such as a bookcase or rack
unless proper ventilation is provided or the manufacturer’s
instructions have been adhered to.
11 Power Sources – This product should be operated only from
the type of power source indicated on the marking label. If
you are not sure of the type of power supply to your home,
consult your product dealer or local power company. For

PREPARATION
+
The speaker layout below shows the standard ITU-R*
speaker setting. You can use it to enjoy CINEMA DSP,
multi-channel audio sources and THX.
* ITU-R is the radio communication sector of the ITU
(International Telecommunication Union).
Front speakers (FR and FL)
The front speakers are used for the main source sound plus
effect sounds. Place these speakers an equal distance from
the ideal listening position. The distance of each speaker
from each side of the video monitor should be the same.
Center speaker (C)
The center speaker is for the center channel sounds
(dialog, vocals, etc.). If for some reason it is not practical
to use a center speaker, you can do without it. Best results,
however, are obtained with the full system. Align the front
face of the center speaker with the front face of your video
monitor. Place the speaker centrally between the front
speakers and as close to the monitor as possible, such as
directly over or under it.
Surround speakers (SR and SL)
The surround speakers are used for effect and surround
sounds. Place these speakers behind your listening
position, facing slightly inwards, about 1.8 m (6 ft) above
the floor.
Surround back speakers (SBR and SBL)
The surround back speakers supplement the surround
speakers and provide for more realistic front-to-back
transitions. Place these speakers directly behind the
listening position and at the same height as the surround
speakers. They should be positioned at least 30 cm (12 in)
apart. Ideally, they should be positioned at the same width
as the front speakers.
Subwoofer
The use of a subwoofer, such as the YAMAHA Active
Servo Processing Subwoofer System, is effective not only
for reinforcing bass frequencies from any or all channels,
but also for high fidelity reproduction of the LFE (low-
frequency effect) channel included in Dolby Digital and
DTS software. The position of the subwoofer is not so
critical, because low bass sounds are not highly
directional. But it is better to place the subwoofer near the
front speakers. Turn it slightly toward the center of the
room to reduce wall reflections.
Presence speakers (PR and PL)
Presence speakers supplement the sound from the front
speakers with extra ambient effects produced by CINEMA
DSP (see page 48). These effects include sounds that
filmmakers intend to locate a little farther back behind the
screen in order to create more theater-like ambience. Place
these speakers at the front of the room about 0.5 – 1 m
(1 – 3 ft) outside the front speakers, facing slightly
inwards, and about 1.8 m (6 ft) above the floor.
Surround back and presence speakers do not output sound
simultaneously. You can set to prioritize either set of speakers in
the Sound menu (see page 61).

SPEAKER SETUP
PREPARATION
Be sure to connect the left channel (L), right channel (R),
“+” (red) and “–” (black) properly. If the connections are
faulty, no sound will be heard from the speakers, and if the
polarity of the speaker connections is incorrect, the sound
will be unnatural and lack bass.
• If you will use 6 ohm speakers, be sure to set
this unit’s speaker impedance setting to
6 ohms before using (see page 26). If you will
use 8 ohm speakers, use this unit’s initial
setting for speaker impedance.
• Before connecting the speakers, make sure that this
unit is disconnected from the power source.
• Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other or
do not let them touch any metal part of this unit. This
could damage this unit and/or speakers.
• Use magnetically shielded speakers. If this type of
speaker still creates interference with the monitor,
place the speakers away from the monitor.
A speaker cord is actually a pair of insulated cables
running side by side. One cable is colored or shaped
differently, perhaps with a stripe, groove or ridges.
Connect the striped (grooved, etc.) cable to the “+” (red)
terminals on this unit and your speaker. Connect the plain
cable to the “–” (black) terminals.
1 Remove approximately 10 mm (3/8 in) of
insulation from each of the speaker cables.
2 Twist the exposed wires of the cable together
to prevent short circuits.
3 Loosen the knob.
The supplied speaker terminal wrench is useful for
loosening or tightening knobs.
4 Insert one bare wire into the hole in the side
of each terminal.
5 Tighten the knob to secure the wire.
■ Connecting to PRESENCE/ZONE 2 or
PRESENCE speaker terminals
1 Open the tab.
2 Insert one bare wire into the hole of each
terminal.
3 Return the tab to secure the wire.
■ Banana plug connections
(With the exception of U.K., Europe and Asia models)
First, tighten the knob and then insert the banana plug
connector into the end of the corresponding terminal.
y
You can also use banana plugs with the PRESENCE/ZONE 2 and
PRESENCE speaker terminals. Open the tab, then insert one
banana plug connector into the hole of each terminal. Do not
attempt to close the tabs after connecting the banana plugs.

CONNECTIONS
18
Do not connect this unit or other components to the mains
power until all connections between components are
complete.
■ Cable indications
■ Analog jacks
You can input analog signals from audio components by
connecting audio pin cables to the analog jacks on this
unit. Connect red plugs to the right jacks and white plugs
to the left jacks.
■ Digital jacks
This unit has digital jacks for direct transmission of digital
signals through either coaxial or fiber optic cables. You
can use the digital jacks to input PCM, Dolby Digital and
DTS bitstreams. When you connect components to both
the COAXIAL and OPTICAL jacks, priority is given to
signals input at the COAXIAL jack. All digital input jacks
are compatible with 96-kHz sampling digital signals.
This unit handles digital and analog signals independently. Thus
audio signals input at the analog jacks are only output at the
analog OUT (REC) jacks. Likewise audio signals input at the
digital (OPTICAL or COAXIAL) jacks are only output at the
DIGITAL OUTPUT jacks.
■ Video jacks
This unit has three types of video jacks. Connection
depends on the availability of input jacks on your monitor.
The signals input at the S VIDEO jacks on this unit are
automatically converted for output at the VIDEO jacks.
When “Video Conv.” is set to “On” (see page 66), signals
input at the VIDEO jacks can be output at the S VIDEO
and COMPONENT VIDEO jacks. Likewise, signals input
at the S VIDEO jacks can also be output at the
COMPONENT VIDEO jacks.
VIDEO jack
For conventional composite video signals.
S VIDEO jack

AUTO SETUP
27
PREPARATION
This receiver employs YAMAHA Parametric Room
Acoustic Optimizer (YPAO) technology which lets you
avoid troublesome listening-based speaker setup and
achieves highly accurate sound adjustments. The supplied
optimizer microphone collects and analyzes the sound
your speakers produce in your actual listening
environment.
• Please be advised that it is normal for loud test tones to be
output during the auto setup procedure.
• If auto setup stops and error messages appear on the screen,
follow the troubleshooting on page 31.
YPAO performs the following checks and makes
appropriate adjustments to give you the best possible
sound from your system.
Wiring
Checks which speakers are connected and the polarity of
each speaker.
Distance
Checks the distance of each speaker from the listening
position and adjusts the timing of each channel.
Size
Checks the speaker’s frequency response and sets the
appropriate low frequency crossover for each channel.
Equalizing
Adjusts frequency and levels of each channel’s parametric
equalizer to reduce coloration across the channels and
create a cohesive sound field. This is particularly
important if you use different brands or sizes of speakers
for some channels or have a room with unique sonic
characteristics.
YPAO equalizing calibration incorporates three
parameters (frequency, level and Q factor) for each of the
seven bands in its parametric equalizer to provide highly
precise automatic adjustment of frequency characteristics.
Level
Checks and adjusts the sound level (volume) of each
speaker.
1 Connect the supplied optimizer microphone
to the OPTIMIZER MIC jack on the front
panel.
• After you have completed the auto setup procedure, be sure to
disconnect the optimizer microphone.
• The optimizer microphone is sensitive to heat.
– Keep it away from direct sunlight.
– Do not place it on top of this unit.
2 Place the optimizer microphone on a flat
level surface with the omni-directional
microphone head upward, at your normal
listening position.
If possible, use a tripod (etc.) to affix the optimizer
mic at the same height as your ears would be when
you are seated in your listening position.

OPERATION
HD Radio is a new technology that enables AM and FM
radio stations to broadcast programs digitally. Digital
broadcasting provides listeners with radically improved
audio quality and reception as well as new data services.
Furthermore, supplemental program services allow
listeners to select from up to 8 HD Radio programs
multicast on a single FM HD Radio channel. For further
information on HD Radio, visit “www.ibiquity.com”.
This unit is equipped with an HD Radio reception feature,
facilitating CD quality FM broadcasts as well as analog
FM stereo quality AM broadcasts. In addition, this unit
can receive both audio and data (such as song titles, artist
names, album names, and genres) from supplemental
program services (HD1 to HD8).
Just as for tuning into an analog FM or AM station,
2 tuning methods are available: automatic and manual.
This unit is capable of receiving both hybrid and all-digital HD
Radio station signals. However, this unit may not automatically
receive all-digital FM station signals and the automatic tuning
operation may stop. In this case, select one of the preset stations,
or manually tune into the FM station you want to select, then set
the tuning mode back to AUTO by pressing TUNING MODE
(AUTO/MAN’L).
■ HD Radio automatic tuning
Automatic tuning is effective when station signals are
strong and there is no interference.
Follow steps 1 through 4 as described in
“Automatic tuning” on page 41.
Both analog and digital broadcasts are received, but when
tuned into an HD Radio station, the TUNED and HD
indicators light up and the frequency of the received
station is displayed in the front panel.
If the HD indicator lights up, the broadcast being received
contains an HD Radio digital signal.
■ HD Radio manual tuning
Manual tuning is recommended when station signals are
weak.
Follow steps 1 through 3 as described in
“Manual tuning” on page 41, then set the tuning
mode back to AUTO by pressing TUNING MODE
(AUTO/MAN’L).
Both analog and digital broadcasts are received, but when
tuned into an HD Radio station, the TUNED and HD
indicators light up and the frequency of the received
station is displayed in the front panel.
If station signals are weak, analog broadcasts will be played back
instead even in the automatic tuning mode, and the HD indicator
does not light up.

BASIC
OPERATION
You can use the REC OUT/ZONE 2 control to record one
source while watching and/or listening to another source.
Recording adjustments and other operations are
performed from the recording components. Refer to the
operation instructions for those components.
1 Turn on the power of this unit and all
connected components.
2 Select the source component you want to
record from by using REC OUT/ZONE 2.
• To record the current input source that you are
watching or listening to, set REC OUT/ZONE 2 to
SOURCE/REMOTE.
• To record a source other than the one that you are
watching or listening to, set REC OUT/ZONE 2 to
the source you want to record.
After this setting, you can change the source you
are listening to and/or watching without effecting
the recording by rotating the INPUT selector (or
pressing one of the input selector buttons on the
remote control).
3 Start playback (or select a broadcast station)
on the source component.
4 Start recording on the recording component.
y
• To record audio and video from different sources, set REC
OUT/ZONE 2 to SOURCE/REMOTE, select a video source
first then select an audio source (see page 39).
• Do a test recording before you start an actual recording.
• The source you record and the source sent to Zone 2 are always
the same.
• When this unit is set in the standby mode, you cannot record
between other components connected to this unit.
• The setting of TONE CONTROL, (see page 60) VOLUME,
Speaker Level (page 65) and programs does not affect recorded
material.
• A source connected to the MULTI CH INPUT jacks of this unit
cannot be recorded.
• S-video and composite video signals pass independently
through this unit’s video circuits. Therefore, when recording or
dubbing video signals, if your video source component is
connected to provide only an S-video (or only a composite
video) signal, you can record only an S-video (or only a
composite video) signal to your VCR.
• Digital signals input at the DIGITAL INPUT jacks are not
output at the analog AUDIO OUT (L/R) jacks for recording.
Likewise, analog signals input at the AUDIO IN (L/R) jacks are
not output at the DIGITAL OUTPUT jack. Therefore, if your
source component is connected to provide only digital (or
analog) signals, you can only record digital (or analog) signals.
• A given input source is not output on the same REC OUT
channel. (For example, the signal input from VCR 1 IN is not
output on VCR 1 OUT.)
• Check the copyright laws in your country to record from
records, CDs, radio, etc. Recording of copyrighted material may
infringe copyright laws.
• Audio signals input from the selected i.LINK or HDMI
components are output to REC OUT when REC OUT/ZONE 2
on the front panel is set to SOURCE/REMOTE or to the source
you want to record. However, multi-channel DVD audio
signals, DSD signals of Super Audio CD and 2-channel PCM
signals over 48 kHz of sampling frequency cannot be output to
REC OUT.
■ Special considerations when recording
DTS software
The DTS signal is a digital bitstream. Attempting to
digitally record the DTS bitstream will result in noise
being recorded. Therefore, if you want to use this unit to
record sources that have DTS signals recorded on them,
the following considerations and adjustments need to be
made.
For DVDs and CDs encoded with DTS, when your player
is compatible with the DTS format, follow its operation
instruction to make a setting so that the analog signal will
be output from the player.

SOUND FIELD PROGRAM DESCRIPTIONS
48
This unit is equipped with a variety of precise digital decoders that allow you to enjoy multi-channel playback from
almost any sound source (stereo or multi-channel). This unit is also equipped with a YAMAHA digital sound field
processing (DSP) chip containing several sound field programs which you can use to enhance your playback experience.
Most of these sound field programs are precise digital recreations of actual acoustic environments found in famous
concert halls, music venues, and movie theaters.
y
The YAMAHA CINEMA DSP modes are compatible with all Dolby Digital, DTS, and Dolby Surround sources. Set the input mode to
AUTO (see page 40) to enable this unit to automatically switch to the appropriate digital decoder according to the input signal.
• This unit’s DSP sound field programs are recreations of real-world acoustic environments made from precise measurements taken in
actual halls, etc. Thus you may notice variations in the strength of the reflections coming from the front, back, left and right.
• Feel free to choose a sound field program based on your listening preference, and not purely on the name of the program itself.
You can select from the following sound fields when playing movie or video sources. The sound fields marked “MULTI”
can be used with multi-channel sources, like DVD, digital TV, etc. Those marked “2-CH” can be used with 2-channel
(stereo) sources like TV programs, video tapes, etc.
Program selection methods vary depending on sound field program types. For details on how to
select sound field programs, see “Selecting sound field programs” on pages 34 and 35.

codes from other remote controls (Learn)”) or use the remote
control supplied with the component.
• Function programmed using the learn feature take priority over
remote control code functions.
Use the learn feature if you want to program functions not
included in the basic operations covered by remote control
codes, or an appropriate remote control code is not
available. You can program any of the buttons available in
the component control area (see page 70). The buttons can
be programmed independently for each component.
This remote control transmits infrared rays. If the other remote

The Macro feature makes it possible to perform a series of operations with the press of a single button. For example,
when you want to play a CD, normally you would turn on the components, select the CD input, and press the play button
to start playback. The Macro feature lets you perform all of these operations simply by pressing the CD macro button.
The buttons listed as macro buttons below are factory set with macro programs. You can also program your own macros
(see page 77).
*1 You can turn on some components (including YAMAHA components) connected to this unit by connecting them to the AC
OUTLET(S) on the rear panel of this unit. (Power control may not be synchronized with this unit depending on the component.
For details, refer to the operating instructions for the connected component.)
*2 When the remote control code for your TV is set up for either DTV or PHONO (see page 71), you can turn on the power of your TV
without selecting an input source. The remote control code set up for DTV takes priority over the one for PHONO.
*3 When TUNER is selected as the input source, this unit plays the last station received before the unit was set in the standby mode.
*4 Playback can be started for any YAMAHA remote control-compatible MD recorder, CD player, CD recorder, DVD player, or DVD
recorder. When using macros to operate other components, you will need to program the play button on the control area of that
component (see page 73) or set a remote control code (see page 71).

ZONE 2/ZONE 3
82
This unit allows you to configure a multi-room audio system. The Zone 2 and Zone 3 features enable you to set this unit
to reproduce separate input sources in the main room, second room (Zone 2) and third room (Zone 3). You can control
this unit from the second or third room using the supplied remote control.
You need the following additional equipment to use the multi-room functions of this unit:
• An infrared signal receiver in the second and/or third room.
• An infrared emitter in the main room. This emitter transmits the infrared signals from the remote control in the second
and/or third room to the main room (to a CD player or DVD player, for example).
• An amplifier and speakers for the second and/or third room.
• A video monitor for the second room.
y
• Since there are many possible ways to connect and use this unit
in a multi-room configuration, we recommend that you consult
with your nearest authorized YAMAHA dealer or service center
for the Zone 2/Zone 3 connections that best meet your
requirements.
• Some YAMAHA models are able to connect directly to the
CONTROL OUT jack on this unit. If you own these products,
you may not need to use an infrared emitter. Up to six
YAMAHA components can be connected as shown.
■ System configuration and connections example
Using external amplifiers
To use an external amplifier in Zone 2, select “External” in Zone2 Amplifier (page 67).
• When not using the main room, turn down the volume of this unit in the main room. Adjust the Zone 2/Zone 3 volume by using the
amplifier in the second/third room.
• To avoid unexpected noise, DO NOT USE the Zone 2/Zone 3 feature with CDs encoded in DTS.
ZONE 2/ZONE 3

USING I.LINK
91
ADVANCED
OPERATION
i.LINK is a high-speed and bi-directional digital interface
in compliance with a global standard approved by the
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE).
i.LINK enables i.LINK-compatible components to send
and receive digital audio signals (bitstreams such as Dolby
Digital, and DTS; 2-channel linear PCM signals; DSD
signals of Super Audio CD) over a single i.LINK cable.
You can process audio signals by selecting between the
DSD Direct mode where DSD signals are directly output
to DSD-compatible audio DAC and the DSD mode where
DSD signals are changed to PCM signals to ensure rich
sound fields.
i.LINK currently supports three different data transfer
rates: 100 Mbps, 200 Mbps and 400 Mbps.
This unit supports hot plugging, a function that allows you
to disconnect or connect the IEEE1394 cable while the
power is turned on.
■ i.LINK compatibility with this unit
■ Daisy chain connections
Use to link components together in a single chain. You can
link up to 17 different components (including this unit)
with this method.
■ Tree connections
Use to link components in a branched configuration when
3 or more i.LINK connectors are available. You can link
up to 63 different components (including this unit) with
this method.
• When making connections, use a 4-pin IEEE1394 cable that
supports the S400 transmission speed. We also recommend
using a cable less than 3.5 m (10 ft) in length.
• The system will not work if components are connected in a loop
(where the output signal is returned to the original component).
• This unit does not output signals not input at the i.LINK jacks.
• Because the data transfer rates may vary depending on the
arrangement order of i.LINK components, it is advised that you
link i.LINK components with the same data transfer rates.
• Do not disconnect or connect the IEEE1394 cable from this unit
or other i.LINK components while data is being transferred.
Doing so may disrupt playback or cause noise.
• When connecting the IEEE1394 cable to this unit’s i.LINK
connectors, be sure to confirm the orientation of the connector
before connecting the cable. Using excessive force to connect
the cable to the connector in the wrong orientation will damage
the connector.
• Do not turn the power of i.LINK components on or off while
data is transferred. Doing so may stop playback. If this happens,
turn this unit to standby mode, and then turn it back on.
• Other i.LINK components connected to this unit need to
support DTCP (Digital Transmission Content Protection).
• This unit supports i.LINK (AUDIO) components only.
Because this unit does not support i.LINK (VIDEO), video
signals, such as MPEG2-TS (BS digital, etc.) or
DV (DV camera, DVD recorder, etc.), are not compatible with
this unit.
• If this unit is in the standby mode or turned off, signals cannot
be output to the next i.LINK component.
USING i.LINK
What is i.LINK?
This unit’s i.LINK interface was based on the
following design standards:
• IEEE1394 Std 1394a-2000
(Standard for a High Performance Serial Bus)
• A&M Protocol
(Audio and Music Data Transmission Protocol 2.1)
• DTCP (Digital Transmission Content Protection)

USING i.LINK
■ Assigning i.LINK components
When an i.LINK component is connected, this unit
automatically recognizes the connection and registers up
to 16 i.LINK components. Assigning an i.LINK
component to a specific input allows you to select video
and audio input signals from that component received via
the i.LINK connection for simultaneous playback.
Turn on the power of this unit and the connected
i.LINK component.
The i.LINK component is automatically recognized and
registered in the following order:
DVD → DTV → CBL/SAT → VCR1 → DVR/VCR2 →
V-AUX → PHONO → CD → CD-R → MD/TAPE
“LINK CHECK” flashes on the front panel display during
this procedure.
• If you want to change the input assignment of a registered
i.LINK component, use Input Assign in the GUI menu
(see page 93) or INPUT ASSIGN in the front panel display
• Only one i.LINK component is assigned to each input and
inputs that are already assigned are skipped.
• If i.LINK components are assigned to all the inputs available,
no more i.LINK components can be assigned, and audio signals
input from these i.LINK components cannot be played back on
this unit.
■ Listening to playback from i.LINK
components
If an i.LINK component has been assigned to a specific
input, perform the following steps to listen to playback
from the registered i.LINK component.
1 Rotate the INPUT selector to select the input
assigned to the i.LINK component.
2 Press AUDIO SELECT repeatedly to set
“AUTO” or “i.LINK” as the input mode.
3 Start playback on the connected i.LINK
component.
• You can turn on/off automatic playback when an i.LINK
component is selected using the INPUT selector or to select
whether you want the input to switch automatically when an
input stream from a connected i.LINK component is detected
(see page 93).

EDITING SOUND FIELD PARAMETERS
99
ADDITIONAL
INFORMATION
A significant factor that creates the rich, full tones of a live
instrument are the multiple reflections from the walls of
the room. In addition to making the sound “live”, these
reflections enable us to tell where the player is situated,
and the size and shape of the room in which we are sitting.
■ Elements of a sound field
In any environment, in addition to the direct sound coming
straight to our ears from the player’s instrument, there are
two distinct types of sound reflections that combine to
make up the sound field:
Early reflections
Reflected sounds reach our ears extremely rapidly
(50 ms – 100 ms after the direct sound), after reflecting
from one surface only – for example, from the ceiling or a
wall. Early reflections help add clarity to the direct sound.
Reverberations
These are caused by reflections from more than one
surface – walls, ceiling, the back of the room – so
numerous that they merge together to form a continuous
sonic “afterglow”. They are non-directional, and lessen
the clarity of the direct sound.
Direct sound, early reflections and subsequent
reverberation taken together help us to determine the
subjective size and shape of the room, and it is this
information that the digital sound field processor
reproduces in order to create sound fields.
If you could create the appropriate early reflections and
subsequent reverberations in your listening room, you
would be able to create your own listening environment.
The acoustics in your room could be changed to those of a
concert hall, a dance floor, or virtually any size room at
all. This ability to create sound fields at will is exactly
what YAMAHA has done with the digital sound field
processor.
You can enjoy good quality sound with the factory preset
parameters. Although you do not have to change the initial
settings, you can change some of the parameters to better
suit the input source or your listening room. The following
parameters are not always found in every program.
2 Select Stereo/Surround, then press h.
3 Select the desired sound field program, then
press h to access and adjust.
You cannot change parameter values when Memory Guard is set
to “On”. If you want to change the parameter values, set Memory
Guard to “Off” (see page 68).
■ Resetting parameters to the factory values
To reset all parameters
Use Sur.Initialize (see page 67).

Memory back-up
The memory back-up circuit prevents the stored data from
being lost even if this unit is set in the standby mode, the
power cable is disconnected from the AC outlet, or the power
supply is temporarily cut due to power failure. However, if
the power is cut for more than one week, the parameter values
will return to the factory settings. If this happens, edit the
parameter value again.

SOUND FIELD PARAMETER DESCRIPTIONS
100
You can adjust the values of certain digital sound field parameters so the sound fields are recreated accurately in your
listening room. Not all of the following parameters are found in every program.
■ DSP Level (DSP level)
Function: Adjusts the level of all the DSP effect sounds within a narrow range.
Description: Depending on the acoustics of your listening room, you may want to increase or decrease the DSP
effect level relative to the level of the direct sound.
Control Range: –6 dB to +3 dB
■ Init. Delay (Initial delay)
Function: Changes the apparent distance the sound source is from the reflection face by adjusting the delay
between the direct sound and the first reflection heard by the listener.
Description: The smaller the value, the closer the reflection face seems to the sound source. The larger the value, the
farther it seems. For a small room, set to a small value. For a large room, set to a large value.
Control range: 1 to 99 ms
■ Room Size (Room size)
Function: Adjusts the apparent size of the surround sound field. The larger the value, the larger the surround
sound field becomes.
Description: As the sound is repeatedly reflected around a room, the larger the hall is, the longer the time between
the original reflected sound and the subsequent reflections. By controlling the time between the
reflected sounds, you can change the apparent size of the virtual venue. Changing this parameter from
one to two, doubles the apparent length of the room.

101
ADDITIONAL
INFORMATION
■ Liveness (Liveness)
Function: Adjusts the reflectivity of the virtual walls in the hall by changing the rate at which the early reflections
decay.
Description: The early reflections of a source sound decay much faster in a room with acoustically absorbent wall
surfaces than in one which has highly reflective surfaces. A room with acoustically absorbent surfaces
is referred to as “dead”, while a room with highly reflective surfaces is referred to as “live”.
The LIVENESS parameter lets you adjust the early reflection decay rate, and thus the “liveness” of the
room.
Control range: 0 to 10
■ Sur.Init.Delay (Surround initial delay)
Function: Adjusts the delay between the direct sound and the first reflection on the surround side of the sound
field. You can only adjust this parameter when at least two front channels and two surround channels
are used.
■ Sur.Room Size (Surround room size)
Function: Adjusts the apparent size of the surround sound field.
■ Sur.Liveness (Surround liveness)
Function: Adjusts the apparent reflectivity of the virtual walls in the surround sound field.
■ SB.Init.Delay (Surround back initial delay)
Function: Adjusts the delay between the direct sound and the first reflection in the surround back sound field.
■ SB.Room Size (Surround back room size)
Function: Adjusts the apparent size of the surround back sound field.
■ SB.Liveness (Surround back liveness)
Function: Adjusts the apparent reflectivity of the virtual wall in the surround back sound field.

■ Rev. Time (Reverberation time)
Function: Adjusts the amount of time it takes for the dense, subsequent reverberation sound to decay by 60 dB
(at 1 kHz). This changes the apparent size of the acoustic environment over an extremely wide range.
Description: The longer the reverberation time, the more “live” the listening room environment seems. The shorter
the reverberation time, the more “dead” the listening room environment seems.
Control range: 1.0 to 5.0 s
■ Rev. Delay (Reverberation delay)
Function: Adjusts the time difference between the beginning of the direct sound and the beginning of the
reverberation sound.
Description: The larger the value, the later the reverberation sound begins. A later reverberation sound makes you
feel like you are in a larger acoustic environment.
■ Rev. Level (Reverberation level)
Function: Adjusts the volume of the reverberation sound.
Description: The larger the value, the stronger the reverberation becomes.

■ Dolby Digital
Dolby Digital is a digital surround sound system that gives
you completely independent multi-channel audio. It
provides 5 full-range audio channels; 3 front channels
(left, center, and right), and 2 surround stereo channels.
An additional channel especially for bass effects, called
LFE (low frequency effect) is also provided giving the
system a total of 5.1-channels (LFE is counted as a 0.1
channel). By using 2-channel stereo for the surround
speakers, more accurate moving sound effects and
surround sound environment are possible than with Dolby
Surround. The wide dynamic range (maximum to
minimum volume) reproduced by the 5 full-range
channels and the precise sound orientation generated
using digital sound processing provide listeners with a
previously unheard of excitement and realism.
■ Dolby Digital EX
Dolby Digital EX creates 6 full-bandwidth output
channels from 5.1-channel sources. This is done by using
a matrix decoder that derives 3 surround channels from
the 2 in the original recording. For best results, Dolby
Digital EX should be used with movie sound tracks
recorded with Dolby Digital Surround EX. With this
additional channel, you can experience more dynamic and
realistic moving sound especially with scenes that have
“flyover” and “fly-around” effects.
■ Dolby Pro Logic
Dolby Pro Logic is an improved technique used to
decode vast numbers of existing Dolby Surround
software. This new technology enables a 5-channel
playback with 2 front left and right channels, 1 center
channel, and 2 surround left and right channels (instead of
only 1 surround channel for conventional Pro Logic
technology). Music and Game modes are also available
for 2-channel sources in addition to the Movie mode.
■ Dolby Pro Logic x
Dolby Pro Logic x is a new technology enabling 6.1 or
7.1 multi-channel playback from 2-channel or multi-
channel sources. There is a Music mode for music, a
Movie mode for movies and a Game mode for games.
■ Dolby Surround
Dolby Surround uses a 4 channel analog recording system
to reproduce realistic and dynamic sound effects: 2 front
left and right channels (stereo), a center channel for dialog
(monaural), and a surround channel for special sound
effects (monaural). The surround channel reproduces
sound within a narrow frequency range.
Dolby Surround is widely used with nearly all video tapes
and laser discs, and in many TV and cable broadcasts as
well. The Dolby Pro Logic decoder built into this unit
employs a digital signal processing system that
automatically stabilizes the volume on each channel to
enhance moving sound effects and directionality.
■ DSD
Direct Stream Digital (DSD) technology stores audio
signals on digital storage media, such as Super Audio
CDs. Using DSD, signals are stored as single bit values at
a high-frequency sampling rate of approximately 2.8224
MHz, while noise shaping and oversampling are used to
reduce distortion, a common occurrence with very high
quantization of audio signals. Due to the a high sampling
rate, better audio quality can be achieved than that offered
by the PCM format used for normal audio CDs.
■ DTS 96/24
DTS 96/24 offers an unprecedented level of audio quality
for multi-channel sound on DVD-Video, and is fully
backward-compatible with all DTS decoders. “96” refers
to a 96 kHz sampling rate (compared to the typical 48 kHz
sampling rate). “24” refers to 24-bit word length.
DTS 96/24 offers sound quality transparent to the original
96/24 master, and 96/24 5.1-channel sound with
full-quality full-motion video for music programs and
motion picture soundtracks on DVD-video.
■ DTS (Digital Theater Systems)
Digital Surround
DTS digital surround was developed to replace the analog
soundtracks of movies with a 6-channel digital sound
track, and is now rapidly gaining popularity in movie
theaters around the world. Digital Theater Systems Inc.
has developed a home theater system so that you can
enjoy the depth of sound and natural spatial representation
of DTS digital surround in your home. This system
produces practically distortion-free 6-channel sound
(technically, left, right and center channels, 2 surround
channels, plus an LFE 0.1 channel as a subwoofer, for a
total of 5.1-channels). This unit incorporates a DTS-ES
decoder that enables 6.1- channel reproduction by adding
a surround back channel to the existing 5.1-channel
format.

INFORMATION
■ Neo:6
Neo:6 decodes conventional 2-channel sources for
6 channel playback by. It enables playback with the full-
range channels with higher separation comparable to
digital discrete signal playback. Two modes are available;
“Music mode” for playing music sources and “Cinema
mode” for movies.
■ PCM (Linear PCM)
Linear PCM is a signal format under which an analog
audio signal is digitized, recorded and transmitted without
using any compression. This is used as a method of
recording CDs and DVD audio. The PCM system uses a
technique for sampling the size of the analog signal per
very small unit of time. Standing for “pulse code
modulation”, the analog signal is encoded as pulses and
then modulated for recording.
■ SRS CS (SRS Circle Surround )
SRS CS (SRS Circle Surround ) is a
high-performance 6.1 channel matrix surround sound
decoding system. It is the next-generation of the original
SRS Circle Surround technology, incorporating powerful
industry-first features including the dialog clarity
enhancement technology and added cinema-like bass to
the front channels and subwoofer.
■ CINEMA DSP
Since the Dolby Surround and DTS systems were
originally designed for use in movie theaters, their effect
is best felt in a theater having many speakers and designed
for acoustic effects. Since home conditions, such as room
size, wall material, number of speakers, and so on, can
differ so widely, it’s inevitable that there are differences in
the sound heard. Based on a wealth of actually measured
data, YAMAHA CINEMA DSP uses YAMAHA original
sound field technology to combine Dolby Pro Logic,
Dolby Digital and DTS systems to provide the visual and
audio experience of a movie theater in the listening room
of your own home.
■ SILENT CINEMA
YAMAHA has developed a natural, realistic sound effect
DSP algorithm for headphones.
Parameters for headphones have been set for each sound
field so that accurate representations of all the sound field
programs can be enjoyed on headphones.
■ Virtual CINEMA DSP
YAMAHA has developed a Virtual CINEMA DSP
algorithm that allows you to enjoy DSP sound field
surround effects without any surround speakers by using
virtual surround speakers.
It is even possible to enjoy Virtual CINEMA DSP using a
minimal two-speaker system that does not include a center
speaker.
■ ASA (Advanced Speaker Array)
ASA is a proprietary THX technology which processes
the sound fed to 2 side and 2 back surround speakers to
provide the optimal surround sound experience. When you
set up your home theater system using all eight speaker
outputs (Left, Center, Right, Surround Right, Surround
Back Right, Surround Back Left, Surround Left and
Subwoofer) placing the two Surround Back speakers close
together facing the front of the room will provide the
largest sweet spot. If for practical reasons you have to
place the Surround Back speakers apart, you will need to
go THX Audio Set-up screen and choose the setting that
most closely corresponds to the speaker spacing, which
will re-optimized the surround sound-field.
ASA is used in three new modes: THX Select2 Cinema,
THX Music Mode and THX Games Mode.
■ ITU-R
ITU-R is the radio communication sector of the ITU
(International Telecommunication Union). ITU-R
recommends a standard speaker placement which is used
in many critical listening rooms, such as mastering
studios.
■ LFE 0.1 channel
This channel is for the reproduction of low bass signals.
The frequency range for this channel is 20 Hz to 120 Hz.
This channel is counted as 0.1 because it only enforces a
low frequency range compared to the full-range
reproduced by the other 5/6 channels in Dolby Digital or
DTS 5.1/6.1-channel systems.
■ Sampling frequency and number of
quantized bits
When digitizing an analog audio signal, the number of
times the signal is sampled per second is called the
sampling frequency, while the degree of fineness when
converting the sound level into a numeric value is called
the number of quantized bits.
The range of rates that can be played back is determined
based on the sampling rate, while the dynamic range
representing the sound level difference is determined by
the number of quantized bits. In principle, the higher the
sampling frequency, the wider the range of frequencies
that can be played back, and the higher the number of
quantized bits, the more finely the sound level can be
reproduced.

■ THX Cinema processing
THX is an exclusive set of standards and technologies
established by the world-renowned film production
company, Lucasfilm Ltd. THX grew from George Lucas’
personal desire to make your experience of the film
soundtrack, in both movie theatres and in your home
theatre, as faithful as possible to what the director
intended.
Movie soundtracks are mixed in special movie theatres
called dubbing stages and are designed to be played back
in movie theatres with similar equipment and conditions.
This same soundtrack is then transferred directly onto
Laserdisc, VHS tape, DVD, etc., and is not changed for
playback in a small home theatre environment.
THX engineers developed patented technologies to
accurately translate the sound from the movie theatre
environment into the home, correcting the tonal and
spatial errors that occur. On this product, when the THX
indicator is on, THX features are automatically added in
Cinema modes (e.g. THX Cinema, THX Surround EX).
Adaptive decorrelation
In a movie theatre, a large number of surround speakers
help create an enveloping surround sound experience, but
in a home theatre there are usually only two speakers. This
can make the surround speakers sound like headphones
that lack spaciousness and envelopment. The surround
sounds will also collapse into the closest speaker as you
move away from the middle seating position. Adaptive
decorrelation slightly changes one surround channel's time
and phase relationship with respect to the other surround
channel. This expands the listening position and
creates – with only two speakers – the same spacious
surround experience as in a movie theatre.
Re-equalization
The tonal balance of a film soundtrack will be excessively
bright and harsh when played back over audio equipment
in the home because film soundtracks were designed to be
played back in large movie theatres using very different
professional equipment. Re-equalization restores the
correct tonal balance for watching a movie soundtrack in a
small home environment.
Timbre matching
The human ear changes our perception of sound
depending on the direction from which it is coming. In a
movie theatre, there is an array of surround speakers so
that the surround information is all around you. In a home
theatre, you use only two speakers located to the side of
your head. The timbre matching feature filters the
information going to the surround speakers so that they
more closely match the tonal characteristics of the sound
coming from the front speakers. This ensures seamless
panning between the front and surround speakers.
■ THX Games Mode
For the replay of stereo and multi-channel game audio the
THX Games Mode should be selected. In this mode THX
ASA processing is applied to the surround channels of all
5.1 and 2.0 encoded game sources such as analog, PCM,
DTS and Dolby Digital. This accurately places all game
audio surround information, providing a full 360 degree
playback environment. THX Games Mode is unique as it
gives you a smooth transition of audio in all points of the
surround field.
■ THX Music Mode
For the replay of multi-channel music the THX Music
Mode should be selected. In this mode THX ASA
processing is applied to the surround channels of all 5.1
encoded music sources such as DTS, Dolby Digital and
DVD-Audio to provide a wide stable rear soundstage.
■ THX Select2
Before any home theatre component can be THX Select2
certified, it must incorporate all the features described in
THX Cinema processing and also pass a rigorous series of
quality and performance tests. Only then can a product
feature the THX Select2 logo, which is your guarantee
that the Home Theatre products you purchase will give
you superb performance for many years to come.
THX Select2 requirements cover every aspect of the
product including power amplifier and pre-amplifier
performance and operation, and hundreds of other
parameters in both the digital and analog domain.
■ THX Select2 Cinema mode
THX Select2 Cinema mode plays 5.1 movies using all
8 speakers giving you the best possible movie watching
experience. In this mode ASA processing blends the side
surround speakers and back surround speakers providing
the optimal mix of ambient and directional surround
sounds.
DTS-ES (Matrix and 6.1 Discrete) and Dolby Digital
Surround EX encoded soundtracks will be automatically
detected in THX Select2 Cinema mode if the appropriate
flag has been encoded.
Some Dolby Digital Surround EX soundtracks are missing
the digital flag that allows automatic switching. If you
know that the movie that you are watching is encoded in
Surround EX, you can manually select the THX Surround
EX playback mode; otherwise, THX Select2 Cinema
mode will apply ASA processing to provide optimum
replay.

GLOSSARY
ADDITIONAL
INFORMATION
■ THX Surround EX
THX Surround EX-Dolby Digital Surround EX is a joint
development of Dolby Laboratories and the THX Ltd.
In a movie theater, film soundtracks that have been
encoded with Dolby Digital Surround EX technology are
able to reproduce an extra channel which has been added
during the mixing of the program. This channel, called
Surround Back, places sounds behind the listener in
addition to the currently available front left, front center,
front right, surround right, surround left and subwoofer
channels. This additional channel provides the opportunity
for more detailed imaging behind the listener and brings
more depth, spacious ambience and sound localization
than ever before.
Movies that were created using the Dolby Digital
Surround EX technology, when released into the home
consumer market may exhibit wording to that effect on the
packaging. A list of movies created using this technology
can be found on the Dolby web site at www.dolby.com.
A list of available DVD software titles encoded with this
technology can be found at www.thx.com.
Only receiver and controller products bearing the
THX Surround EX logo, when in the THX Surround EX
mode, faithfully reproduce this new technology in the
home.
This product may also engage the THX Surround EX
mode during the playback of 5.1 channel material that is
not Dolby Digital Surround EX encoded. In such cases the
information delivered to the Surround Back channel will
be program dependent and may or may not be pleasing
depending on the particular soundtrack and the tastes of
the individual listener.
■ Component video signal
With the component video signal system, the video signal
is separated into the Y signal for the luminance and the
PB and PR signals for the chrominance. Color can be
reproduced more faithfully with this system because each
of these signals is independent. The component signal is
also called the “color difference signal” because the
luminance signal is subtracted from the color signal.
A monitor with component input jacks is required in order
to use the component signal for output.
■ Composite video signal
With the composite video signal system, the video signal
is composed of three basic elements of a video picture;
color, brightness and synchronization data. A composite
video jack on a video component transmits these three
elements combined.
■ S-video signal
With the S-video signal system, the video signal normally
transmitted using a pin cable is separated and transmitted
as the Y signal for the luminance and the C signal for the
chrominance through the S-video cable. Using the
S VIDEO jack eliminates video signal transmission loss
and allows recording and playback of even more beautiful
images.

PARAMETRIC EQUALIZER INFORMATION
114
This unit employs YAMAHA Parametric Room Acoustic
Optimizer (YPAO) technology, together with the
Parametric EQ settings (see page 59), to optimize the
frequency characteristics of its parametric equalizer to
match your listening environment. YPAO uses a
combination of the following three parameters
(Frequency, Gain and Q factor) to provide highly precise
adjustment of the frequency characteristics.
■ Frequency
This parameter is adjustable in one-third octave
increments between 63 Hz and 16 kHz.
■ Gain
This parameter is adjustable in increments of 0.5 dB
between –20 and +6 dB.
■ Q factor
The width of the specified frequency band is referred to as
the Q factor. This parameter is adjustable between the
values 0.5 and 10.
YPAO adjusts frequency characteristics to suit your
listening requirements using a combination of the above
three parameters (Frequency, Gain and Q factor) for each
equalizer band in this unit’s parametric equalizer. This unit
has 7 equalizer bands for each channel.
The use of multiple equalizer bands enables more precise
adjustments of frequency characteristics (as in Figure 2).
This is not possible using only a single equalizer band (as
in Figure 1).
